7 After Shipping the Dart would retail for approximately 750000 Rupees ($8300 CAN). Remember this product has no ongoing costs once it is delivered except for fuel (if tractors are being used) and that this is a viable price for a co-operative group of farmers. 15hp tractor uses approximately 2.75L of fuel/hr. – 936 rupees This planter can sew 1 ha/hr (depending on soil conditions). To manually seed a 1 ha field takes anywhere between 4-7 days. By saving days worth of hard manual labour, both the farmer and their workers would be able to invest their efforts towards other needs/priorities.
